The Gospel is an announcement not an argument. You share it, not shove it.

It made me think.......

As I go to share (preach) the gospel as instructed by Jesus.....

I want to always announce the Gospel,not argue.

I want to share it and what the Lord has done for me and through me.....

I want to reach out in compassion....

I want to extend grace.....

I want to love as He does.

I do not want to shove it...........

I never want it to be offensive to the hurting but instead a balm of Gilead to their wounds.....

I never want to push someone deeper into darkness and away from Christ.

I never want to humiliate them for their lack of knowledge but yet be a light of encouragement.

I want my words to always be his words.....

My ways to be his ways......

My love to be a reflection of the Father.

Loving or Shoving..... The Gospel

2 Timothy 2:24-25

24 And
the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to
teach, not resentful.25 Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that
God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth,* I take no credit for above photo*

Stacey, this was such a wonderful reminder. I surely don't want to be guilty of turning someone off to the Gospel because I made the mistake of shoving it on them instead of sharing it with them with love. There is such power in our words and our actions. I want this too... "I want my words to always be his words.....My ways to be his ways......My love to be a reflection of the Father.
